NY Governor gets into a sex scandal. Biden urges him to resign

Губернатор Нью-Йорка потрапив в секс-скандал

New York Governor Andrew Cuomo was accused of sexual harassment – US President Joe Biden called on him to step down.

New York State Attorney General Laetitia James said a criminal investigation was underway against Cuomo. According to her, in violation of the law, he touched, kissed or spoke suggestive comments to 11 women.

The results of a five-month investigation into allegations of sexual harassment showed that the governor created a “toxic” workplace, and his office illegally retaliated against the first public prosecutor, journalists write.

Following accusations from the attorney, Biden called on Cuomo to resign.

“I think he should resign… I’m sure some of the hugs were completely innocent. But obviously the attorney general decided there were things that weren’t,” Biden said.

At the same time, Cuomo made it clear in his video message that he was not planning to retire, the journalists write. He also denied that he had acted inappropriately.

“The facts are very different from what was depicted… I have never touched anyone inappropriately or committed inappropriate sexual harassment. I am 63 years old. I have lived my entire adult life in full view of the public,” Cuomo said.
